Resisting the Mark
Those of us who navigate borders in a daily way also learn to navigate the disciplining of markers assigned to us by others. We do this by constantly shifting and crossing borders at the intersections of culture, geographic location, gender, and sexuality as a form of resistance to the marking of identity categories. Some of us do this as a way of simultaneously occupying multiple cultural spaces. Others do it to define their sexuality or their g…
Answering the Call
This paper explores the daily, psychic journeys Indian call center agents undergo as they 'virtually migrate' between India and the US. A thin cable that runs half way around the globe bridges the 'here' and the 'there', connecting agents to faraway customers in real time. The new time-space relations generated by this virtual contact create conditions for these workers to undergo a global 'migration' from India and to America, even as their bodi…
Still the Silence
This book provides a series of reflections on the paradoxes and transformative possibilities of silence. Our title, Silence, Feminism, Power: Reflections at the Edges of Sound, evokes the paradoxical relationship between sound and silence that is obscured when we assume an equation between voice and agency, and its inverse equation—silence and oppression. Our impulse is to challenge the binaristic relationship that has been assigned since antiqui…
Answer the Call
Answer the Call explores the daily, psychic journeys Indian call center agents undergo as they virtually migrate between India and the U.S. The new time-space relations generated by this virtual contact create conditions for these workers to undergo a global "migration" from India and to America, even as their bodies remain bounded within the national homeland. This temporal arrangement displaces them from the daily rhythms of Indian life, genera…
Silence, Feminism, Power
An interrogation of the often-unexamined assumption that silence is oppressive, to consider the multiple possibilities silence enables. The volume features diverse feminist reflections on the nuanced
Engaging Power Feminism Through My Dance With Cancer
If cancer is the metaphorical equivalent of the oppressive systems that afflict society, our collective body, how do we develop the vision, tools, and skills to heal ourselves and the collective whole? Using my dance with cancer as an embodied metaphor, I argue that power feminism needs to grapple with the lived material, cancerous realities that differently oppress women's lives if it is to manifest a socially just world where people have agency…
Belonging, Bridges, and Bodies
Feminists' negotiations of academic spaces are often facilitated by allies who act as bridges for us. We interviewed three pairs of women who are friends, colleagues, or partners and analyzed their stories for notions of how they were enacting bridgework for each other within the context of fluid identities, and shifting power relationships. We find that bridgework happens primarily along three axes in these relationships: bridging to community, …
Dreaming the Nation
Hindi cinema has functioned as a site for the production and exploration of national identities and ideologies in the popular imagination. An examination of some of the most successful films of the 1990s (Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Pardes, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, etc.) reveals the emergence of the domestic drama as a highly popular genre wherein a troubling new construction of Indian identity emerges. This new construction is …
Satellite Television and the New Indian Woman
The article analyzes the rapid development of private satellite television in India during the 1990s and the resulting changes in the portrayals of Indian women. The primary focus in images of Indian women changed from portrayals of women as domestic housewives and mothers, to women as sexual beings who often work outside the home and who have become Westernized. Drawing on the concept of cultural hegemony, a content analysis is carried out of th…
